De Sousa, K.C. (Karina); Smits, Cas; Moore, David R.; Myburgh, Hermanus C.; Swanepoel, De Wet (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2022-05)OBJECTIVES : The digits-in-noise test (DIN) is a popular self-test measure that has traditionally been used to screen for hearing loss by providing either a pass or refer result. Standard approaches either tested each ear ...
